The closest I’ll ever get to being up in lights in Times Square That phrase isn’t Keelah Se’Lai It’s the Quarian phrase I created for #MassEffect Annihilation. The name of my ship Not “by the homeworld I hope to see one day” but “by the homeworld I hope to find one day” I have a lot of feelings…

Are there any industry artists out there who can weigh in on my portfolio & help get it better prepped to be accepted? I've applied to about 25 art positions & gotten 6 rejections this week. I'm running out of time & funds so I'd appreciate the help!💕 I have also done game capsule art & UI work.

Jumping on the bandwagon to show my love for Bioware 💕 I'm still way too heartbroken to really say much. DA was the series that shaped me over the past eleven yrs. The stories, the characters, the worldbuilding, the art direction. I will never be able to thank the studio enough. Thank you, Bioware.

Let's keep the train of art inspired by Bioware games going 💖 DAO was one of the first games I played as an adult and Veilguard lifted me from a creative slump. I'd not be where I am artistically without it. ME and DA got me through so much and I'll forever be thankful to the devs for creating them

It’s important to realize that we, the players, are no longer the customers of video game companies. We’re just a source of money. The real customers are the investors, and no matter what, the companies need to keep them happy and show them that their investments are paying off.

Hi friends. Do I know anyone who does freelance crowdfunding campaign management in the tabletop world? Or do YOU know someone like that who you might recommend? (I'm sure I DO know someone, I just can't keep track of who is a gun-for-hire and who is committed to a specific publisher)

So we fly a pride flag in our front yard in a very conservative neighborhood and it’s been there for the last few years. Someone put this in our mailbox and my goodness…

It's Sunday morning and we've got rain ALL DAY. I'm not sure if nary a hint of the sun will be seen at all. But I've got coffee to make, some games to look at, and some chill vibes to provide. Come hang out if you're so inclined! 💖 twitch.tv/urbanbohemian

Just got an email from a former student who took my class a decade ago, asking me for the reading list because she enjoyed the course so much and wants to revisit the texts. And she *apologized* for making the request. Are you kidding me?

Starting to get some interest from devs in this. Indie game developers and small studios feel free to email me if you want more info or to ask questions. Would love to get a bunch involved again this year.

Cringer@cringer.bsky.social

Indie game developers and small studios/publishers: Hope to get a bunch of you involved in the 9th Annual Cringey Awards. We aren't The Game Awards but it's a good time and a great way to share your game. (Actually we are better because we like indies and small studios.) Read more below.

Fascinating article, and it's interesting to think about why most games with presumptive colons sound awkward, yet some are just perfect titles. Good example of this in my mind is Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. What a perfect title, getting across mechanical form and story/setting concisely.
